It’s the ’Roid Defense.
Lawyers for “MAGA bomber” Cesar Sayoc — the President Trump fanatic who pleaded guilty to mailing explosive devices to well-known Democratic politicians — have had him evaluated in a bid to show how his “extensive steroid use likely affected his mental health,” according to new Manhattan court documents.
The lawyers informed the federal sentencing judge about the evaluation in a letter Tuesday.
The bodybuilding suspect has pleaded guilty to 65 counts, including 16 counts of using a weapon of mass destruction, and is awaiting sentencing.
Sayoc told the judge in his own letter Tuesday that he has been abusing steroids for 40 years and that he was using 274 different vitamins and supplements at the time of his crime.
Sayoc, who once worked as an exotic dancer, also wrote that before Trump’s election in 2016, the “leftist leadership” encouraged its faithful to vandalize the van he was living in, causing $18,000 worth of damage.
